What is Telegram Topic Rename?
This Openclaw Skills integration provides a specialized automation for Telegram group administrators and power users. It leverages the Telegram Bot API to programmatically update forum topic titles and icons, ensuring organized and visually categorized discussions within Telegram supergroups.
The skill is designed to integrate seamlessly with AI agents, allowing them to interpret user requests for topic management—such as renaming a thread or changing its emoji—and execute the necessary API calls via a lightweight shell script. By centralizing topic management, users can maintain a structured communication environment with minimal manual effort using Openclaw Skills.
Telegram Topic Rename Use Cases
- Automating the organization of high-traffic Telegram forum groups.
- Dynamically updating topic names based on the current discussion theme.
- Visually categorizing threads using a consistent set of emoji-based icons.
- Renaming topics through natural language commands in an AI-powered interface.
How Telegram Topic Rename Works
- The AI agent detects a user intent to rename or update a Telegram topic within the conversation.
- It extracts required metadata, including the chat_id and thread_id, from the active session context.
- The agent invokes the rename-topic.sh script with the target name and optional icon identifier.
- The script sends a secure request to the Telegram Bot API using the configured TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN.
- The Telegram platform updates the topic title and icon instantly for all group members.
Telegram Topic Rename Setup
To begin using this tool among your Openclaw Skills, you must provide a valid Telegram Bot Token. Set the TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN as an environment variable or within your configuration file:
export TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN="your-bot-token"
Ensure your bot has the necessary administrative permissions in the target group to manage topics.

The skill requires specific parameters to identify the target forum thread and apply changes:
